Yes, you were confounded by Elephant Helmet, but can you handle Helmet Elephant?? I’m challenging your preconceptions so strongly that you better watch out.
My Art – Elephant Helmet
This piece of conceptual art clearly expresses the western world’s constant struggle between nature and technology.
Post From The Past – August 2007
Jesus wept. It’s my least favourite time of the month, that’s right, it’s time for “Post From The Past”… dur-durrr (that was a sarcastic trumpet noise). And there are 26, that’s right, 26 posts in one month; what was I thinking?? Anyway, I better get started:
26. Not My Finger – It really isn’t my finger.. It’s his:
Lovely finger
25. Alright Ant – Have a nice weekend? Have a nice shower? etc etc.
24. Who wants a brew? – Deciding whose turn it is to make the next brew is one of life’s greatest challenges. But it’s deffo Goot’s turn next.
23. Look In to My Eyes – I studied for many years to develop truly hypnotic eyes, and here is the evidence. Obviously, I can’t hypnotize you through a photo, but it may make you feel erotically charged if you stare at it for too long.
22. My Art - Rubbish – We throw so much away in our society, it was the least I could do to challenge our wastefulness through the medium of photography. Beautiful yet disturbing.
21. Debate of the Decade – The Result – I mean, the problem was, there was never much of a debate about it. Earth Song is some kind of mind virus sent from the fifth dimension, and as such is untouchable.
20. Pigs Might Fly? – Well just look at the evidence, pigs DO fly. Who is hiding this from us? Why aren’t we allowed to know? It could be the ultimate conspiracy. Alternatively there might be a simpler explanation. What do YOU think?
19. Is it just me… – From Walton Gardens, to the world of Hip-Hop, this photo has caused controversy, literally, world-wide. What has happened to the gormless fools involved in the incident? There’s only one way to find out. Sadly, I don’t know what that is yet.
18. My Art - Desk – This in-situ art installation wowed all and sundry for many a good year.
17. Classic Bob – Bob Products – Looking back at the height of Bobbymania, we sample some of the shameless merchandising that was available.
16. My Art - Lamp – When is a lamp not a lamp? When it’s a jar (ajar).
15. St Helensian for Beginners – Lesson 1 – If you are ever thinking of visiting a fish & chip shop in St Helens then I strongly advise you read this article first. It may just save your life.
14. Simon, I Know I am the X-Factor – If Simon just gave me one chance, then I know I could be better and win this competition.
13. Coming Soon – An exciting trailer for the sadly delayed Fireheart film. Fans around the world wait with baited breath.
12. Flight Of The Crow – More shenanigans from the evil one. One day he will be stopped.
11. Binge Drinking – Just take a look at the photo and evaluate your own drinking habits. For god’s sake do it.
10. Classic Bob – Fact File – More classic Burley info from the year 2000. Get a harrowing insight in to the psyche of a genius.
9. St Helensian for Beginners – Lesson 2 – Some everyday phrases you may need to use in St Helens.
8. My Art - Jeans – Some people say that this is simply a photo of some jeans. Others say it is a map of the universe.
7. Peggy Widge – We’re not afraid to tackle serious medical complaints at Sherby57. Or stupid ones.
6. True Life Tales – This will have you on the edge of your seat… and beyond.
5. Genetic Engineering – Has it gone too far? – Mr Banana-Penis has given me more hits than anyone else. Hurrah!
4. Classic Bob – The Bobby B Fan Club – If only you could still join this. Well technically you can but the initiation ritual is fatal.
3. Sexy Lamb – Cute. And she’s not been glued down.
2. Sherby57 on TV (not literally) – A look at some of the hottest TV shows on the box.
1. Best. Car. Ever – Just look at the photos. It needs no further explanantion.
Until next month, keep sweating.
Disclaimer – This is an extremely self-indulgent feature and is a cynical attempt to recycle stuff that I have written in the past in the vain hope that someone will actually read them. Please feel free to slag off “Post From The Past” to your heart’s content.
